For Designing the System
(1) When assembling the glass portion into the backlight unit, determine a positioning part and fix the circumference of glass
on a double-sided tape etc. Mechanical parts should be designed so that stress may not be applied to inlet of the glass
downside. When assembling the PCB portion into the set, fix PCB in places other than part mounting domain.
(2) Power supply lines should be designed as follows.
Power supplies should always be turned on before the input signals are supplied to LCD module without backlight, and
the input signals should be disconnected before power supplies are turned off.
If the sequence does not satisfy specified conditions, it may cause miss-operation of the panel.
Refer to "2.4.2 Sequence of Power Supplies and Signals" for the detailed specification.
(3) The set case should be designed so that stress such as twist and bend may not be applied to module when assembling
the glass portion into the backlight unit and using the set.
The set case should be designed so that stress such as twist, bend and stretching may not be applied to the connection
of TAB when bending TAB at the process of assembly.
(4) This LCD is designed for note PC and assumes about 2000 cd/m2 as luminance of the backlight used.
When the backlight of the luminance beyond 2000 cd/m2 is used, luminance should be set up after evaluating enough
the product characteristics, such as module display operation, grace and reliability and checking that it is satisfactory.
(5) Please adjust inverter circuit parameters, such as capacitor, resistor, to assure the display quality is maintained.
There is a possibility that flicker is observed by the interference of LCD operating signal timing and FL driving condition
(especially driving frequency).
(6) In case of severe environmental condition like outdoor usage, a proper transparent protective cover(lens) over LCD
module without backlight is recommended to apply in order to prevent scratches, and invasion of dust, water, etc., from
the system's window onto LCD module without backlight.
Ultra-violet ray cut filter is recommended to apply onto LCD module without backlight for outdoor operation. Strong
ultra-violet ray may cause damage the panel.
(7) Design the system not to display same pattern for a long time in order to prevent image sticking on the panel. Note that
incorrect sequence of power supplies and input signals may cause the sticking on the panel, too.
